How to Embed Font in Flash

Adobe Flash is a computer program used to create many interactive features. For example, you can use Flash to create interactive websites, advertisements or games. When using Flash, there may be times when you need to embed fonts. If you do not properly embed the fonts, the program may display a font or a graphic that is not what you intended. Thankfully, the process to embed a font in Flash is not overly complex.

Instructions

      Create a new file in your Flash software. Open the Flash program, select the "File" option and choose "New Flash Document."

      Open Flash's Library in your new Flash document. In the pop-up tab in the Library, select "New Font." This will open a new window called "Font Symbol Properties."

      Click "OK" to exit the Font Symbol Properties window. The newly created font will appear on the document's library. Right-click on the newly created font. Choose the "Linkage" option; this will open a new window entitled "Linkage Properties."
